Harnessing Gram‐negative bacteria for novel anti‐Gram‐negative antibiotics

Microbial Biotechnology
Natural products have proven themselves as a valuable resource for antibiotics. However, in view of increasing antimicrobial resistance, there is an urgent need for new, structurally diverse agents that have the potential to overcome resistance and treat

Challenges in laboratory diagnosis and antibiotic treatment options for a newly described Pseudomonas aeruginosa class A beta-lactamase type GES-62 strain

GMS Infectious Diseases
Antibiotic resistance is a major challenge in modern healthcare, as it severely limits the choice of treatment options. In particular, carbapenemase mediated carbapenem resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa poses an emerging health risk worldwide.

Wearable Smart Patches on Sustainable Chitosan With Reversible Microbial Growth‐Inhibitory Properties

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chitosan, a polysaccharide upcycled from biowaste, has long promised sustainable, biocompatible, and antimicrobial films and devices, an appeal reinforced by its recent regulatory recognition, with several chitosan‐based antibacterial dressings gaining clearance through the Food and Drug Administration's 510(k) pathway.

Dynamically Actuated Reconfigurable Topographical Surface Enables Active Control of Implant‐Associated Infections

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A dynamically actuated reconfigurable topographical surface (DARTS) integrates contact‐mediated bactericidal nanotopography with programmable mechanical actuation to actively disrupt bacterial biofilms. Dynamic surface reconfiguration enhances bacterial killing and suppresses implant‐associated infections in vivo, providing a new strategy for active ...

Hydrogels Augmented With Artificial Sweeteners can Inhibit Multidrug‐Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii Growth and Biofilm Formation While Demonstrating Safety in Pre‐Clinical Pilot Human Trials

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Using PVA–borax hydrogels as carriers for off‐the‐shelf artificial sweeteners to fight multidrug‐resistant A. baumannii. These soft, biocompatible hydrogels rapidly reduce bacterial viability within multidrug‐resistant A. baumannii biofilms by more than 99% within one hour and sustain antimicrobial activity over time, while demonstrating safety in both
